Hello,
in iso_3166_2.xml, there are two entry corresponding to "Maryland",
one is LR-MY, another is US-MD and there is only one "Maryland" entry
in iso_3166_2.pot. it will cause every language must give same name to
these two entries, I don't think this is a good idea. "Montana" entry
also has this problem.
Suggestion:
1. in xml file, rename "Maryland" to "Maryland (LR-MY)" in the first
place, and rename another to "Maryland (US-MD)".
2. provide en.po, in en.po almost every msgstr is equal to msgid, but
for these two, they will be translated to Maryland
3. other languages can free to translate these two entry into different result.
